Not in our name

A friend got his letter published in the Herald today:

Moderate Muslims, stop these extremists hijacking your religion and reputation. I am a Muslim from a Pakistani background and I've had enough of these extremists killing and maiming innocent people and dragging the name and background of honest Muslims through the dirt. The extremists are making us ashamed of our religion and background; they're attempting to make the word "terrorism" synonymous with the word Islam.

It is time the moderates in the Muslim community stood up to this evil and started spreading the word that if we find anybody preaching hatred we report them to the authorities. All the fellow moderate Muslims out there, I call upon you to expose and corner anyone preaching extremism and hatred.
